8. The final step after you are happy with the design is to create the FIR (Finite Impulse Response) file that
will be used by the Array II program to control the column’s performance. Pressing the
Generate FIR
bar
will open the FIR file naming/destination screen shown below.
Although the program will let you change the File name, we recommend accepting the one generated by
the program. If you want to easily identify individual project files, use Windows Explorer to
create a project folder and then store the .fir files there. It’s easy to do. Just click on the
Create New Folder
icon at the top of the Generate FIR window and follow the prompts. One word of caution, don’t use a “.”
(dot) in the folder name. Dashes and underscores are allowed, but dots are not.
Before exiting BeamWare you probably want to save you work. BeamWare offers you a variety of methods
to do this. Using
Ctrl+S
will save it as a project file that can be opened again at a later date and
Ctrl+A
allows you to save it under another name.
